Was this used as a UK TV theme tune at some point in the distant past? 🤔 My brain feels like it is trying to access corrupt data. Specifically around the 2 minute mark of the song.

If you've not seen it, or don't know who Pac is, here is one of the greatest and funniest matches of all time. And as great a wrestler as he was, it seems like he was even more loved as a person. youtu.be/7W63y_mCcg0?...

Occasionally we are reminded that there is no karmic justice to be found in this life. Good people are not protected from tragedy by the grace of their deeds. Despite this they are astounding anyway. Enriching the lives of everyone around them because it is who they are.

A friend of mine did not know what to get me for Christmas one year so he used his laser cutter to burn Pac into a slice of bread for me. It made me so happy. It was very unexpected. Goddamn it.

I've been trying to think of easy costume ideas for halloween. A Gumby from Monty Python is ideal... However I'm worried that people younger than me will think I'm dressed as "Holiday Hitler" or something 🤔 Do people still know about Gumbys!?

I was blissfully ignorant of TV operas until reading Copeland's book. It looks like channel 4 used to churn them out quite routinely. I watched parts of this assault upon the senses and that was enough 🤠🐴🐮👂😭 I think I will remain an knuckle-dragging philistine regarding opera.

I found this cutie at the Pyke Quarry tip on the floor next to the fabric recycle bins of all places! I moved it into the nearby field hedgerows. After throwing an old toilet in a skip, a tip worker said "You're a strong girly" which I should probably resent but instead enjoyed 🤗 I love the tip! 💪

It would be a cool gimmick for a stunt diver to be called “Geronimous Splosh”. They could jump into a paddling pool from a great height made to look like a monstrous maw. Spectators must dress like the denizens of hell.

Randwick is a strange place. I dislike what a rat-run it can be for cars but I love the density of birds. I see a bird of prey every time I visit. Today I heard a bonus woodpecker!
Both St John The Baptist Church and St Becca the twat being baked by the mid day sun. Lots of lens flare, very 2010. A lovely old stone stile. The main gate is always open so I don't think it gets a lot of use. It could be handy if the Church comes under siege by Daleks that cannot fly.  The shady side of the church. The stained glass looks a little underwhelming from outside. It was very cool back there.

I'm from a long line of farmers on both sides of my family. I'm convinced this is why I wake up at 4am all summer long. I yearn to massage the cows, dust the chickens and hoover the crops or something. Instead I sat outside this morning enjoying the soft light, impotent of all agricultural chores.

This is the most accurate song recommendation Spotify has ever suggested for any playlist ever. "Hole In My Life" IS one of their worst songs! Anyway, I hope I stop waking up at 4am soon or I might start going nutty.
A spotify playlist of the Police's worst songs according to me. "Born in the 50'a", "Be My Girl - Sally", "Mother", "Walking In Your Footsteps" and Murder by Numbers" (the most controversial on the list I think). Spotify is suggesting to me that "Hole In My Life" is also shit, which it is! I'm sure I will add a few more as I think about it.

I think I might be the only person to notice the repurposed Police arrangements in the Spyro the Dragon Sound tracks. The venn diagram of people obsessed with both cannot be very big. For example the bassline from "No time this time" and Spyro's turtle beach level is almost identical.

No where in this world means "summer holiday" to me quite like Wales (Tragic I know). The Osprey project and the beach at Ynyslas are both magical to me. (My phone cannot take good enough photos to do the Osprey's justice but you can watch their live stream www.youtube.com/live/ARHNU7Y... )
The board walk at the Osprey Project. A fun sand dune to slide down. A wonderful beach to walk on with loads of shells and poor jelly fish. The beach texture here was like the crunch of a cottage pie. It was very pleasing.

Today has been a nice change of pace. We have been scrabbling about in the garden preparing a flowerbed for use with new log roll, weeding and my favourite task... meticulously picking out all the bits of old plastic sheeting the previous owner put everywhere. It's contaminated but then, so am I 😅

Sam's tummy made a very odd gurgling noise in the night which woke both of us up. He didn't know what the sound was and thought some strange creature had come in through the window. He was filled with a very genuine terror. Despite that, he is now asleep and I am awake 😅

My cat (Kitty) passed away on Friday. Her absence is intolerable. I have never understood the compulsion to be a crazy cat woman until now. If you have 10 cats then your home can't possibly feel this empty.

I tend to use American recipes for puddings and cakes because as a nation, they operate without fear of obesity in a way I can admire. It comes at the cost of having to deal with the antiquated imperial system and fucking “cups” as a measurement, I ask you. I’m sure they do it out of spite.
